Hoot!


So cute! I finished up the owl part of Melly & me's The Owl and The Pussycat bag pattern to match the dress I made for my niece.



Doesn't it remind you of the Tootsie Pop owl a little?



I decided to do the eyes a little different from the pattern. French knots are cute and all, but I was looking for something a little more retro. I turned to the Softies book for inspiration and it was right there on the cover. The eyes on the treeling were perfect!
